Psalms 20

God’s Blessing on the King

1 May Yahweh answer you in the day of trouble.

May the name of Jacob’s God protect*The sense is that of making something inaccessibly high, like a fortress you.

2 May he send you help*Hebrew "your help" from the sanctuary,

and from Zion may he sustain you.

3 May he remember all your offerings,

and your burnt offering may he regard favorably.*Literally "find to be fat"

4 May he give to you your heart’s desire,*Literally "according to your heart"

and your every plan may he fulfill. Selah
